@ekrahmer, has this ever been available?
I don't think so. See https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/pull/3358 for a related change. Neither are all properties used for search nor does the backend index all properties to be searchable.

@ChristophWurst, then we should probably remove https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/issues?q=label%3Abug from https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/issues/3143, right?
I'd love for all properties to be indexed and searchable.
@ChristophWurst thanks for developing the change 3358. Any ETA or target NC version when we can enjoy it in production?
Unfortunately, this has never been available. Some of the missing properties are essential for group management issues. For some tasks I have to bypass NC and use Thunderbird in conjunction with the Cardbook extension. This degrades NC to a filespace with hooked CardDAV server

Thank you for sharing your experience and the workaround!
